Elizabeth Street

Elizabeth Street is a street in Manhattan, New York City which runs north-south from Bleecker Street to Bayard Street. The southern part of the street was constructed in 1755, and it was extended north to Bleecker Street in 1816. While the street was once home to Italian-American tenements during the late 19th and early 20th centuries, Elizabeth Street later became a popular shopping strip in the Nolita neighborhood.
